What?[^]
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Yes, but that "thru" bothers me even more.
|
|
|
|
|
"Thru" and "nite" are spellings that, even if I know I'm communicating with an intelligent adult, make me feel like I'm talking to a child.

I guess his worries related to exiting through the door blade, not through the opening in the wall usually covered by the door blade.

Hmm. For a short while my inbox was free of spam. By short while I mean no more than a couple of days. And now I am getting flooded again.
Primarily I get the following:
Penis enlargement.
Breast enlargement.
ED cures.
Recipes.
Woodworking.
Lottery wins.
Unsolicited job offers.
Uncollected parcels.
For some unknown reason a complete stranger wants to give me millions of dollars.
Home improvements.
Auto-repair shop discounts.
and many more.
I guess it must pay off for them but my black list grows longer and longer and that's even after I have added entire countries to the block list.
Perhaps what I should do is to answer each of them and offer, for a small upfront fee, to rewrite their missives so as to enhance the chances of their scams working!
p.s. I really wouldn't do that but it really would be fun to see how many would send the money!

I know what you mean!
I added Russia to the FOAD list back in the dial up days and still receive nothing from a .RU domain.
Back in the day, it dumped well over half of my spam in one fell move. And our Russian distributor as well, which was a major bonus...

Please take this flagrant discussion to the proper forum, Spam and Abuse Watch Discussion Boards[^]
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

If only it were that simple!
|

That's an inappropriate recommendation. This is just devs talking.
Kindly move your suggestion to the appropriate forum[^]

I've found Gmail's spam filter to be very good. After using it for years, the hiccups are pretty minimal.

You can use outlook with gmail. 
|
|
|
|

No, not outlook.com, outlook.exe. I have a variety of reasons that I have to use that for email none of which are even remotely important here.

You can set Gmail to work via POP or IMAP to use in Outlook. And Gmail for work supports Exchange.

I agree. Gmail works great.

Yes, they filter it out to use it to decide what advertising to hit you with.

I'm sure, but at least it's not intrusive the way they show it. Beats what other companies do.

Outlook.com/live.com has a rather good one as well. I have had my live account for at least five years now, and have had only ONE piece of spam get into the inbox. Mark it as such, and hey presto, it's gone.
Very few false positives also.

I always wonder how you guys do it.
I rarely get spam.
For some reason I get the most spam from Microsoft. Their MCP and VS mails always end up in my spam folder 
Other than that... Maybe one email a month. Maybe.
Then again, I really don't need that enlargement I've been hearing about

The criteria for spam are that the message both unsolicited and unwanted, right?
Personally I'd be happy to receive random recipes in my inbox! (Anything to keep the wife happy...)
And no that wasn't an invitation to anyone, because I know some of you would have done it! 
(Well, unless the recipe is really good...)
